Hello All,
I need a little help with respect to the iterative re-discovery of the SAP adapter in wmb7.0. We have an SAP inbound adapter that was created in the 6.1 release and yes it works perfectly fine in wmb7.0. The SAP side now has added some new fields and since new fields are not available in the adapter i need to re-create the adapter to get these new fields, but not from scratch. While doing iterative discovery i got an error that Iterative discovery is not supported on components created with message broker realease prior to wmb 7. Can somebody please suggest how to go about it? |

Why don't you want to rediscover the whole SAP Message format?
In my experience trying to add fields manuall is very his and miss.
If you really don't want to rediscover the whole thing and overwrite your existing project then I'd do the following
1) Do the rediscovery but create a new message set.
2) Look at the properties of the new fields and create them exactly the same way in your existing project.
3) Pray that you have not missed something.

Every time you reinvent the wheel the more square it gets (anon). If in doubt think and investigate before you ask silly questions. |

Adding a point more: 
this is the better approach, you can re-discover and create a new message set and can merge this new to old one using win-merger this is how i do it.

i second Gaya3 here.. I have also been following the same approach since long, as manually we don't have to add any new fields, to give chance for any mess, but the adapter automatically procures the updated structure from SAP via the connection.
The whole error I am facing is in the difference of version of WMB used at the time of creation of the adapterl, due to which presently I am not finding a way to edit it. need  in this  |

what is the problem you are facing on the adapter part?
i know one particular reason where the xsds point to V6.1 and its not quite easy to do any update, i went for complete discovery and updated it.
is this the same or something different

in wmb 7.0 i was trying to use the option "Iterative discovery" on the SAP adapter{that was created in 6.1 version} by right clicking on it. But as soon as I did that I got an error saying "Iterative discovery is not supported on adapter components created with message broker release prior to 7.0"
For the adapter components which I have created in WMB 7.0 I am easily able to use Iterative discovery option and update the adapter and message set. |
